I did the training “Winning Hearts and Minds” in 2010. Their methodology is revolutionary. They helped us discover what our strengths were – rather than our weaknesses – and made a clear demonstration that we all have the necessary talents to create and deliver punchy, creative and captivating presentations without the use of dozens of useless and boring PowerPoint slides. In times like these, if you are looking for immediate results in no time, you should most definitely get in touch with them!

Computacenter

Najberg Milne have been actively involved in improving the presentation skills of individuals within Computacenter for a number of years now. They have the ability to give confidence to the novice but still enhance the skills of the most experienced campaigner.

As a direct result of the “Winning Hearts and Minds” programme, we recently won a contract with a major-UK based organisation. In fact, it was one of the top three contracts my company won last year. Initially, it is worth about £42 million pounds over five years, but should grow consistently.Whilst I was on part 2 of the programme with some of my managers, another part of the team presented our case for a large bid to the Chief Executive and Chief Operating Officer, who told them not to bother because it was too expensive and lacked understanding.

Immediately on coming back from the course, their manager (who was also on the course) and I did a further review, asked the account team to get further information from the customer and present the case back to us. This they did, and we proceeded and we went on to win the bid. The final presentation was literally put together from the course template. When we won the contract, the customer himself said he was surprised because, at the start, they had a totally different perception of us. They also said the final presentation was much better than the competition and covered all of their key areas.

It was probably the simplest, best and most profitable presentation I have ever been involved with; and Steve Ball (the manager mentioned above) totally agrees.

This gave us an added benefit that I wasn’t expecting when I sent my team on the course. It didn’t just improve their presentation skills, it gave the management team a common language to review not just presentations but bids. This is particularly noticeable when someone who has not been on the course tries to present to us as a team.

I arrived on the first morning of “Winning Hearts and Minds” with a mixture of disinterest and skepticism. I had taken several presentation and communication skills courses before and, while they were useful, they all seemed superficial; and, within weeks, I reverted to my previous communication styles.After one day with Najberg Milne, I knew I was being taught, not just how to present, but how to communicate with other people in order to make a connection. After the course I knew I had undergone a life-changing experience. Indeed, nothing was ever the same about the way I communicated after that. I had learned.

And the skills I had learned in “Winning Hearts and Minds” helped me build and promote the fastest-growing revenue segment in the company at the time. I made the programme required training for all my sales people and all my managers, and I am confident it contributed to our team’s revenue growth.

I would recommend Najberg Milne to any organisation that is ready and willing to change the way they communicate both internally and externally.

Andrew Smith, Sales Director

I had the great opportunity to be trained by Najberg Milne to adjust and perform in my presentation skills. Via this training I have been able to focus on my presenting and transform it into a powerful tool that will help me for years to come to deliver my message efficiently. After a year I keep this presentation toolset as one of my favorites… The way they deliver the training is also dynamic, very interactive and highly professional. Certainly one of the most efficient training sessions I ever had. I highly recommend their services.

Every executive goes to a standard presentation course thinking they can present to the best of their abilities. We would obviously all like to be better, we would like to engage the audience, we would like to inspire others but we think that this is a gift that one either have or does not have so we settle for the current state At least this was my opinion.Then I went to Najberg Milne’s class and it changed my perspective 100%. In two days I was first able to assess my current skills through direct feed back but then I realised and experienced that presenting and inspiring others is accessible to all of us as long as we put in the work and persevere.

Najberg Milne’s presentation training has been the most useful and rewarding training I have ever attended and sent my staff to. Definitely money well spent. Happy to take calls to discuss further – can even send you the before and after recording.
